Re[2]: gnu-win32 without registry entries?




Hardcoding the location of the fstab would be a mistake.  
     
On the other hand, a simple solution would be to put the location in the 
environment.  DJGPP does something like this to locate a file that contains 
a lot of information needed to run software compiled under DJGPP.

Hi all,
     
I second it!  We should be able to use a mount table like linux's fstab on 
the C drive's root directory. How do you mount it on c:/root/b19/etc/fstab 
for example, assuming the root is at c:/root/b19 ?  Perhaps the location of 
fstab can be hard-coded like c:/root/etc/fstab.
